Happenings

On his 1966 classic Happenings, vibraphonist Bobby Hutcherson assembled a quartet with Herbie Hancock on piano, Bob Cranshaw on bass, and Joe Chambers on drums for a sublime post-bop outing featuring captivating Hutcherson originals including the stunning ballad ‘Bouquet’ and Latin-tinged ‘Rojo’ as well as a version of Hancock’s ‘Maiden Voyage’. This Blue Note Classic Vinyl Edition is stereo, all-analog, mastered by Kevin Gray from the original master tapes, and pressed on 180g vinyl at Optimal.
